Yeah it was a decent episode. We finally know what happened to Asemu.

It's the stuff I didn't mention earlier when this season started, remember? There's a whole side story manga based on those events.

Received the Zeta Gundam yesterday and I'm going to start building it today. The transformation looks awesome! Though I won't be transforming mine as I'm going to put it on its stand. I'm also going to have to hang up a new shelve just for the Zeta Gundam because there's no space on the current ones. The RX-78-2 will probably also be put on the shelve as I might put panel lines on that one as well.

WIP pics is a must. :D

This is how far I currently am:

Tomorrow I'll be working on the arms, hips and legs. Note though that the lines on the face underneath it's eyes aren't refined yet. Going to do that tomorrow as well.

That's because the faceplate on the Gunpla is 1 piece of plastic.

Here's the original Zeta Gundam head and you can see that the original actually has the indent:

Though, I thought we dropped that topic a few pages back when I posted this picture of this post earlier :p There might be reasons to why they didn't add it to the faceplate of the MG version. I see that it would've been tricky to have made it look as good as the current one does.

Okay I have something to discuss: Am I the only 1 who thinks Oppa Gangnam Style sounds like, "Oppa Gundam Style?"

no you are not. lol. Jam posted a video a few pages back.. it's a the original video with Gundam heads.

^I heard it the first time that I heard the song, haha.

@Razorwing: That RX-78-2 looks proper ugly.

Regarding episode 46: The RAW file has been posted yesterday so there's a delay atm.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Danielx64 · Posted

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
